Video: NYPD seeking person who is wanted in connection with a Staten Island burglaryThe New York City Police Department is seeking the public's assistance in locating a person who is wanted for questioning in connection with a burglary that occurred within the confines of the 123rd Precinct. On Saturday, April 28, 2012 at approximately 1 a.m., a person entered the Taste of Corona ice cream parlor, located at 7339 Amboy Rd., through a front sliding window and removed an unknown amount of cash before fleeing.

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- Now that's cold.

Police are asking the public to help them find a cold-as-ice-cream burglar who grabbed the "good luck" cash off the wall of a Staten Island sweets parlor last month.

And for the proprietors of the family-owned Taste of Corona ice cream parlor, which opened last year at 7339 Amboy Rd. in Tottenville, the heist hit home.

"They took all of our good luck money off the wall," said Jillian Rini, the store's manager. "There's 20s on the wall and that's what he grabbed."

The break-in happened on April 28, at about 1 a.m., police said.

Ms. Rini said her father, who owns the parlor, discovered the next morning that someone had pushed in the locked, sliding window.

"We think it had to be a customer," Ms. Rini said, worrying that while they had served ice cream to the thief, he was casing the money posted to the wall.

This weekend, police released surveillance video of a man wanted for questioning in connection with the break-in.

According to a press release from the NYPD's Deputy Commissioner for Public Information office, the suspect is described as a bald man, about 30 to 35 years old, with a goatee.

"You think it's like a little low-key area, and it's an ice cream parlor. And it's sad," said Ms. Rini.
